Supersonic ads painful lesson!?!?!

  Seen a Supersonic offer, use Subway gift card for WGT credits and the award was 843 credits. 

   

  I have a subway card and figured, cool why not get a bonus with using it here.   Well, turns out that you exchange $20 for 843 WGT credits!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  Received the 843 credits almost instantly, but was expecting 2,843 credits.

   

  Why would there be an offer like that when we can use the Subway gift card for credits straight out??????

   

  1,157 credit lesson right there,  was going to put the credits toward the new Nike putter,  not sure I feel like playing period.  

   

   I tried to find support for supersonic ads and it popped up, "site under maintenance" 

   

   

   

  ***EDIT

   

  Shoe took care of me.  sincerely appreciate that.  But just hope others don't misread/understand the offer like I did.

  Spend $20 to get 843 credits?? WTF is up with that? That can't be right.

  Yep,  didn't make sense to me either.   

   

  Just hope that this thread helps others from doing the same thing.

  Well Jim some of the offers where you have to spend some cash to get credits are like that. Take the Shoebuy.com offer for example.  Spend at least $30 at Shoebuy.com and get 1000 credits. Spend 3000 credits worth of cash to get 1000 credits.

  Right, but in this case, there was nothing bought.  It's simply just a way to turn a gift card into game credits.....which we can already do   at no loss.   That's the part "that can't be right".  IMO

  This fails. There's no Shoebuy card to use to buy credits with. This Subway bit is way wrong. Think about it-you go to Subway and spend $20 on a card that's already good here just to get 843 credits? I don't think so.

  That's exactly what clouded my vision on the offer.
